Hartford, Conn.

A second man has died following a double shooting in Hartford's North End, and police are now asking for the public's help in finding suspects in the killings.

City police say 30-year-old Kelly Cooper of Hartford died at a local hospital Tuesday afternoon from a gunshot wound to the head.

Authorities say Cooper and 19-year-old Kwante Feliciano were shot on Clark Street at about 5 p.m. on Monday. Police say Feliciano died from a gunshot wound to his torso less than a half-hour after the shooting.

Officials say they don't believe the shooting was a random act. They described the shooter as a Hispanic man about 5-feet-6-inches tall and 180 pounds who was wearing a black hooded sweatshirt.
